dedicated to pei
there are many fond memories that i have of you girl. as well as many heart wrenching ones. but i am glad that we have stuck out as friends for such a long time and here, i dedicate my thoughts for your memory and mine.
you are that girl..
you are that girl whom i first met during the sec school orientation wearing maroon-colored culottes (or rather it should be skorts, as unpolished_gem just educated me) and became my first friend.
you are that girl with cute fringe, long pigtails and a huge nose for your (then) face.
you are that girl, whom we quickly became the best of friends.
you are that girl, whom i find it fascinating cos you had a twin sister.

you are that girl, who kept urging me to join you in st. john as an eca cos you felt that being able to save people and know first aid is such a great thing.
you are that girl, whom collected my eca form and abused your authority as a monitress and secretly changed my no. 1 choice from athletics to st john and putting athletics as my no. 2 choice, pushing my table tennis dream out of the picture completely.
you are that girl, whom upsetted me when i found out i couldnt play table tennis and am stuck in st john forever cos my school had a stupid rule about not being allowed to quit the eca once your name is on the list.
you are that lucky girl, who crushed my table tennis dreams in completing in the nationals at secondary level but am very lucky that i couldnt push the blame on you cos there wasnt enough female players in the school anyway.
you are also that lucky girl, cos i did manage to get into athletics as well even though i had to juggle between 2 core ecas and had the in-charges fighting for me on saturdays for training.

For my most beloved fren..
There are also many memories in me of you, the bad ones have been buried and shall never be dug up again, and the numerous touching and memorable ones sits in a memory chip embedded deep inside my brain cells…Just to list a few worth-mentioning ones dedicated especially to u…
U are that girl whom i could click the instant we knew each other during Sec 1 orientation… the girl whom i tot had quite ugly hair at a bit tomboyish at that time….but was very active and lively compared to the quiet and shy me…
U are that girl, whom my mom and sisters remembers till now…
U are that girl, whom i tot lead a good and carefree life coz ur mom did not control u like mine do…later to realise there’s sadness and loneliness during ur childhood …
U are that girl, who i shared and gone through the fun and torture together during our training as a junior in sjab… later our pride and joy after getting a 3rd place (if i remember correctly) for our 1st First Aid/Home Nursing Competition and during our days as senior cum mentor to the junior sjab cadets…
U are that girl, who always came across as stern and hard-hearted whenever u were the training NCO in sjab but deep down i know that’s only a diff side of u that u need to show becoz of your role..
U are that girl, who never had to do first-aid duty during our school and inter-school’s cross-country races.
U are that girl, who i always lookout for and hoping u are the first lady to appear at the finishing point during our school’s cross country races.
U are the girl, whose house i have been to the most no. of times amongst all my friends.
U are the girl, who transformed into a pretty chick since hair straightening and rebonding was invented.
U are also the ‘Maggie Cheung’ look-alike girl, with that sexy thin lips and charming eyes.
U are the girl, who was so sociable and easy-going, could click with everyone of my friends and became my partying ‘kaki’ during my ‘chionging’ days …remember our Summer Rain and Square Rooms?? Hee…
U are the girl, whom i always tot of when it comes to sports or even extreme sports…coz u were always so sporty and energetic.
U are the girl, who didnt mind me and stayed by my side even when i started dancing.
U are also the girl, whom i always buy a gift for whenver i travel …and vice versa too (*wink wink back)
U are the girl, when we fail to keep each other up to date or meet up often, is still the one i think of sharing my joy and worries with.
U are the “mother”, whose hamsters given to me 2 years ago had passed away and started my liking for hamster as a pet.
U are the girl, whom i admire for the love and devotion u give to your loved ones.
U are the girl, who has also seen me through each and every guy that i have been with… and that will happen till my final and last love..
U are the girl, that i definitely want as a bridemaid as well (let’s see who gets married 1st then).
U are the girl,lady and woman next time… who is and will be my dearest in my heart.
And the list goes on…. but you are and will always be the one with that special memory chip in my brain who will share my ups and downs, see me walk down the aisle holding on to my husdand in my wedding, age together (hopefully not! but we have to accept that fact), start our own families and our kids will be the best of friends too…
Cheers to our everlasting friendship! *Toast*!
